Happy Father's day - Ma Baap ki sewa apne aap me Phal hai

दिन भर की भाग दौड़ में याद ही नहीं रहता ये
रोज़ मिलना बातें करना पर फिर भी दिल भूल जाता ये
फादर्स डे पर क्या पापा को विश करने की ज़रूरत है
फिर दिल कहता है अरे पगले उन्हें कैसे पता चलेगा आज फादर्स डे है
मम्मी को तो मदर्स डे पर विश करना अच्छा लगता है
पर पापा को विश करने में भी दिल घबराता सा है
उनके अनुशासन और प्रेम के आगे लेकिन संकोच टूट जाता है
उनके बलिदानों को याद कर आँखों में सावन उभर आता है


और दिल कहता है बोल दे बिंदास ,पापा आपका बेटा आपको बहुत चाहता है


ज़िन्दगी में जैसा भी हूँ आप की वजह से हूँ
अपनी किलकारियों को सुन सकता आपकी वजह से हूँ
मैं आप जैसा ज़रा भी अच्छा बन पाऊं और कोई तमन्ना नहीं
हाँ ये सच है मैं खुलके आपसे कभी ये बोल सकता नहीं
जीवन में आपने ही चलना हसना बोलना दौड़ना सिखाया
आपने ही तो दूसरों के ग़म में दुखित होना सिखाया
जब कभी पुराने खिलौनों से ऊब कर रोने लगा मैं
आपने पीठ पर बैठाया तो हसने लगा था मैं



ओ पापा मैं आपको कितना चाहता हूँ मैं कभी बता नहीं सकता
बस इतना है की आपके प्रति प्रेम को मैं छह कर छुपा नहीं सकता
प्यार मोहब्बत दोस्ती से पहले रिश्ता माँ -बाप का होता है हमसे
आप के लिए कभी लिखा नहीं पर आज ये खुद ही लिख गया मुझसे
जीवन में एक प्रतिशत भी आपसा बन सका तो जीवन सफल समझुंगा
आप ही तो मेरे असली हीरो हैं जानता नहीं क्या आपसे कभी ये कह सकुंगा
आपकी ही दी हुई प्रेरणा पल पल मुझे प्रोत्साहित करती है
ज़िन्दगी में मुश्किलें भी हल हैं बात कौंधा करती है


मैं आपको क्या दूँ क्यूँ की बेटा तो हमेशा बेटा ही रहता है
हाँ आपसे कह सकूँ या न पर आपका बेटा आपको बहुत चाहता है
माँ -बाप के आशीष से ही इंसान इंसान बनता है
माँ -बाप की सेवा करना अपने आप में फल होता है

Dohas of Saint Kabir ji (संत कबीरदास जी के दोहे ),

Chalti chakki dekh kar, dia Kabira roye dui paatan ke beech mein,sabit bacha na koye

Looking at the grinding stones, Kabir laments In the duel of wheels, nothing stays intact.

The grain that is put into wheel gets crushed and the converted flour comes out.  Thus the literal translation given above conveys that.Kabir cries out, however,  is what makes the reader to contemplate on this Doha and realize for oneself the hidden meaning behind this metaphor. Dui Patan here signifies earth (Prithvi) and sky (Akash) and within the ambit of these is all creation and life as also the manifestation of all natural phenomenon of dualities – day and night, life and death, joys and sorrows, thereby making life forever in motion (Chalti Chakki) and an ever changing process. Trapped in this duality, whatever we see is perishable. Nothing that we comprehend is eternal.  Kabir sahab yahan kah rahe hain ki vyakti apne jeewan ka saar na samajhkar avivek se karm karta rahta hai aur use ye lagta hai ki vo amar hai aur ye sara sansaar sada ke lie hai,parantu jo aaya hai vo jayega isi sidhhaant ko pratipadit karte hue Kabir kahte hain ki hume apne jeewan ko vivek se jeena chahiye aur saarthak karna chahiye,aatmtatva ko samjhke usme isthit hona chahiye.

Bura jo dekhan main chala,bura naa milya koye Jo munn khoja apnaa, to mujhse bura naa koye

I searched for the crooked, met not a single one When searched myself, "I" found the crooked one

This doha deals with our perception behavior and tendencies. It has been invariably noticed that we tend to find fault with someone else for our situations and circumstances.   Our "I", the ego, always tries to put blame on others.   Non-awareness of our own self is the cause of this attitude.  Resultantly, we find ourselves being busy in criticizing and condemning others and conveniently term them as crooked or evil. So Kabir says that instead of finding fault and maligning others, dive deep into your own-self.  Amazingly, an honest introspection will reveal that all fault lies with "me" and "my" own perceptions and attitudes. If there is any evil or crookedness, it is in "me".  Correcting this and opting for a loving and compassionate attitude will change one's perceptions and the world will appear wonderful all over again. Yahan Kabir sahab kahte hain ki hume apne me avgun dekhna chahiye tabhi sachhe arthon me hum gunwaan banenge,doosron me kamiyan dekhne se hum apna drashtikon ko kharaab karte hain atah sabme achhaiyan dekhni chahiye.

Dohas of Saint Kabir ji (संत कबीरदास जी के दोहे )

Bada hua to kya hua, jaise ped khajoor
Panthi ko chaya nahin, phal laage atidoor

If you are big so what?  just like a date tree
No shade for travelers, fruit is hard to reach

Being bid, important, powerful, wealthy is of no consequence - Kabir likens this to a date tree that does not give shade to the traveller and its fruit is out reach. 

yahan Kabeer sahab kah rahe hain ki hamari padhai likhai,unnati,sampannta ke asli manak hamari vinamrata,dayalutata tha  auron ke prati sadbhaav hai.Jaise ki koi ooncha ped haa par agar yaatrigan usse chhanv nahi pate to uski oonchaayi nirarthak hai.

 

Jaise til mein tel hai, jyon chakmak mein aag
Tera sayeen tujh mein hai, tu jaag sake to jaag

Like the oil is inside the seed, Just as the Fire is Inside the Flint stone

Your God is Inside you, If you have the Power to Wake Up, then wake Up

God is within, like the oil in the seed - wake up if you have the power to. 

Yahan  Kabeer sahab kah rahe hain ki shareer ko hi apna maan lene se vyakti ko dukh milte hain kyunki ye naashwaan hai parantu isi ke andar jeevatma jo parmaatma ka ansha hai bhi hai.Islie jaise til me tel hota hai usi tarah sadhak ko chahiye ki vo apne swaroop athaart aatma me isthit hoke swayam hi swayam ko praapt kar le.

 

Maya mari na mann mara, mar mar gaye shareer
Asha trishna na mari, keh gaye das Kabir

Neither maya died, nor the mind died, die and die again People/Bodies
Hope and delusion have not died, so said Das Kabir and left

 Kabir observes the world from within, and sees the world as Maya - illusion. It is projected by Mun, the mind, the collective mind. Shareer refers to the living body or living person.Kabir ji says that its hard to control the maind and the desire and without controlling these one can not attain the peace.

Yahan Kabir sahab kahte hain ki shareer bhale khatm ho jata hai parantu insaan ki ikchhaayen nahi martin aur jiski vajah se vo kabhi bhi brahm ko nahi pa pata.Yahan vo isi baat par zor de rahe hain ki hume apne mann ko niyantrit rakhna chahiye va is vinaashsheel sansaar ki apekchha avinashi parmaatma me aasakti rakhni chahiye.

 

 

Pothi padh padh  jag mua, pandit bhayo na koye
dhai aakhar prem ke, jo padhe so pandit hoye

Reading Books and Scriptures everyone died, No one became Pandit
Two and Half Words of Love, Who ever reads, Pandit he becomes

Forget about book learning, no matter how many books you read, you won't become wise, you won't became the Pundit. A few words of love and you'll become Pundit,a real wise person.

Kabeer sahab kahte hain ki bahut saara gyaan ekatrit karne ke baad bhi agar hum kisi ko dukh dete hain to hum abhi gyaani nahi hue kyunki Eeshwar ke banaye is jagat me vohi budhhimaan hai jo uske banaye insaano se prem rakhta hai.

                                                                                              

 

Chinta aisee dakini, kat kaleja khaye
Vaid bichara kya kare, kahan tak dawa lagaye

Worry is such a Thief, it eats one's heart
What can the poor doctor do, How far will his medicine reach?

 

Kabir Ji says that one can get nothing by being worried therefore Don't worry, be happy. Instead of being worried in earthly things one should remember the Supreme and see hi grace and become always happy.

Kabir ji kahte hain ki chinta chita ke samaan hai athaart iska koi ilaaj nahi hai kyunki naashwaan is sansaar me saare sukh sansaar ki tarah hi anitya hain athaart samaapt ho jate hain atah unme anand nahi balki vyakti dukh hi uthaata hai.Parantu jo har taraf Parmaatma ki kripa dekhta hai vo chinta nahi chintan karta hai athaart Parmaatma ka bhajan,satsang karta hai,isliye hume chinta nahi chintan karna chahiye.
